2)Toa asked Volt if they had a wolf dog to help him with his hunting.
3) Look at Tao's decisions and actions from Volt's perspective. Pretend you are Volt. Write a first person paragraph explaining how you feel.
4)I think that some of Tao's decision aren't smart and he should work harder.E.G., he should work harder at hunting by not wasting time,because a lot of peaple are counting on Toa and the rest of the hunters. Also, I think that Tao should be allowed to paint pictures, because that is what he wants to do and makes him happy.

Page 148 Meaning: I think it means that Jonas was so crushed when he found out that his own father kill babies with out feeling nothing and not think this is crul and wrong.
